I love Thai food and thought I would try this based on the reviews. Very disappointed. I got the chicken pad Thai and my daughter had the beef pad Thai. Can't get past the smell (wet dog). If this is what it is supposed to smell like then it's just not my thing but it was very pricy and neither of us could eat it. Would not recommend 😕 the stuffed crab appetizer was ok but overpriced for what it was.

Amazing Thai food! After 5 days in Banff&Jasper, we're dying for Asian food and luckily we found this place!
The appetizer chicken Satai (the award winning one) is great! The chicken is fresh and well cooked, pita is hot and soft, and the sauce is delicious.
The spicy seafood spaghetti is tasty as well. Tho it has 3 chili on the menu but to me it's not super spicy. Seafood contains shrimp, mussels and clams.
My favorite dish is the duck confit curry with coconut rice. Great curry! Loved the coconut crunch on the rice. But it's a small portion for an adult man so hubby has to

One of the best Thai restaurant I’ve tried so far. FYI If you want it spicy, please ask them. I’m Thai and I know they are. (I don’t know them in person) Unlike some places that are not authentic.
I requested Thai flavour and I’m not disappointed. The portion was good. The taste was awesome. Will come back.

I was craving some Thai food and this Cured my craving and beyond. This was my 1st time at this location in the exceeded my expectations. Arriving at the location it was very well kept clean welcoming the ladies were super polite and friendly. There is construction in the nearby neighbour so be ready for that if you get delayed for an order pickup or meeting someone. I ordered Thai red curry and the Thai green curry and pad Thai and the best spring rolls I've ever had in my life. The was to go, it was well prepared With takeout dishes and put together so it did not spill. I Highly recommend this

Avoid eating in during covid- it is very tiny inside and does not seat over 12. The food was average. Not amazing by any means but not bad. I got the Thai Mac and cheese with tofu, which had sticks of hard carrots in it which didn't seem to fit the dish, but the rest of the ingredients, the tomato, the peppers and onions, went well with it. It wasn't your typical Mac and cheese, it was a tomato base sauce with mozerella on top. My partner go the pad Thai- it tasted like feet. We also got the spring rolls, which were good. Overall, I would not eat there again nor recommend it.

Went to the LOFT the first time tonight. It is in a strip mall just off 75th street. A small place. I counted seating for 30 people if every chair is taken. Skip the Dishes drivers were in and out for the entire 90+ minutes we were there. While the decor is not "fancy", the bar area gives it a bit of a classy look. I ordered the pork ribs with their own glaze. My wife had the red curry with chicken and coconut rice. Both were excellent and artistically presented. My ribs were very tasty. My wife thought her curry had great flavour and just enough spice. Since it was Valentine

I was able to meet one of the owners, Rebecca, a few days ago and she is simply lovely. She showed us the decor and how they did it all themselves. Loft has been open for about two years now, and I think due to the location they mostly do delivery. I think it is worth it to go into the location itself because it is lovely and the customer service is great!
I had the Pad Thai (Vegetarian), and my partner had the Pad Thai Flatbread and a salad I believe. It was great. It didn't take long and we got our food within about 15 minutes. Not bad at all! I would absolutely recommend this place to

I wanted so badly to LOVE it here after drooling over their social media for months, but it just didn't hit the spot for me. It's a very small place in a tucked away plaza with just a few tables to sit at. I did notice a steady line of delivery pick ups and take out orders, so they are definitely busy.
Service was ok, not overly attentive, but not super slow either. Drinks were kept refilled and our food came out in a decent amount of time. The menu is a modern-fusion take on Thai, so it's not where I would go if I'm craving straight up Thai food.

Really good food. I ordered a Rama Salad with Salmon. It was really good. The peanut ginger dressing was so good. My friends ordered from there lunch menu and everyone liked there food. I highly recommend their coconut rice.
One more thing if you planning to go there for lunch don’t be surprised by long wait ad the place is small and is super packed.

For whatever reason reviews are good on this place. This restaurant is a tiny place on the middle of an industrial area. The dishes really cater to non-spicy palates with several dishes that are way too sweet and too runny (i.e.. Both the green and the red curries are very soup-y, non spicy and almost sugary). The place also caters to more Western taste with a number of dishes that are neither thai nor fusion (i.e. Stake and ribs).
I ended up here with family on a celebration. I made reservation at 8 not knowing that their kitchen closes around 8:15-8:30 (this wasn't mentioned anywhere on

I super like this place. It is a trendy little restaurant. It is small so be warned if you're going to be there during a lunch rush that it might be a bit of a wait. But it is worth it. The process moves at a good enough pace that you never actually feel like you're waiting, or at least I haven't.
They have a good, but small selection. Menus that are too big make the ordering process too long. Lots of curry to enjoy. They have bottles and fountain beverages. Portion wise they are good.
And now that I am done writing this, I am going there, because I need this food!

I ordered take out last night from Loft and was very disappointed. I had the rama tofu which was crunchy tofu sautéed in rich creamy peanut sauce and market vegetables. It came with a side of rice and I upgraded to coconut rice for an extra $1. The vegetables were broccoli, peppers, bean sprouts and carrots. There were only 2 small pieces of red pepper, 2 slices of mushroom and the carrots were literally still raw. The coconut rice was not very flavorful either. It actually tasted like plain rice. The pad thai was not any better to say the least. Tasted like ordinary noodles. I was very unsatisfied

Tried this last week. As we rolled up, looked like a typical strip mall restaurant. As we walked to the door, it got better. As we entered, it looked even better.
Menu is both classic thai and thai fusion. We ordered from the fusion section and we were very pleased. Amazing colourful presentation and wonderful tastes.
Service was prompt and attentive without being chatty. Pricing is more than classic thai and we thought it was good value.

A small restaurant in a strip mall in an industrial area. Service was slow and staff seem confused. The meals were good but the one chili spice level is quite hot. Drinks were good but expensive. Modern Decore and jazz music playing. Two tv screens showing images of Thailand streets. OK to visit once a year. Food is expensive for a bowl of noodles, though the food is good.

This is one of the best Thai restaurants in Edmonton! The interior is small but modern and lively. There are a few tables and a bar facing the kitchen. The staff is very friendly and welcoming!
We started with the Thai iced teas and they were wonderful, they had a strong tea flavour that's balanced very nice with the condensed milk. The appetizer we choose were the delicious zap wings and I wish he had ordered the zap battered shrimp as well as they were the special that day!
The entree I ordered was the Braised Duck Confit curry with coconut rice and it was unbelievable! It is definitely

This place is the best thai food I ever had in Edmonton!!! The green curry is very good!!! The loft thai arancini is very good too, we try the drunken bucatini it was ok the only thing I did like about that dish was that is spicy other than that is just ok. I'm just so happy to have a good thai restaurant close now!!! My new spot to eat good food!!! Love new places and this one is worth trying!!

Located in a strip mall on the east side, this hidden gem is getting quite the reputation. Made a last minute reservation on Open Table and drove rather quickly from the west end and got there right on time. Looking at it from the outside, it doesn't really stand out with its back to the main road and generic strip mall frontage.
Inside, it's modern and designed well to fit as many tables as they can without having other patrons sitting on top of you.
The service is friendly and quick, only knock was that our mains came out a few mins apart which is a bit annoying, but my dish

Fresh and modern! The place looks extremely new and very clean. Service is nothing special, but nothing below average. Everything is well plated and presented. But most importantly the food is exceptionally flavorful and it's nice how extra rice is free of charge if the dish comes with rice originally. Although the place is small, it's nice an inviting. Nice to stay and chat after your meal! Overall would go again to try one of their slow cooked meals dishes!
